Thanking God
 

A lil background for those who don't know Jazzie....

She's a lil over 1 1/2 years, she spend her first 6 months or so in a puppy mill, only to be sprung out by a lady who wanted her for nothing more than to breed her and make money off of her. When Jazzie wouldn't produce puppies, she was no longer wanted:( Only by the grace of God did I find out about her and God cleared the path and she is now in our home and leaving paw paw prints in our hearts every single day. Jazzie didn't know what a toy was when she came to us, didn't know how to play, didn't know what a treat was and wouldn't eat one for the longest time. She only weighed 3 pound when she came to us, she's finally up to 4 pounds 12 ounces now :D Our lil Maggy is a chihuahua/yorkie mix, she's 5 pounds and just full of spunk and loves rip roaring through the house playing. It broke my heart when she'd try and play with Jazzie and Jazzie would just hide, or role over and expose her belly and shake:( Poor Mags tried everything to get Jazzie to play, even brought toys to Jazzie and laid them in front of her, but even that didn't work:( I've cried so many tears watching Jazzie and how "in a shell" she was. But with every new thing she did (like finally eat a treat or carry a ball, even though she didn't know what to do with it) I've cried tears of joy & have thanked God for helping her along the way. A few days ago, Jazz and Mags started to run around the livingroom together, actually looking like they were having fun:D I was to afraid to move and do anything, I didn't want them to stop. Today, finally, after 2 long months, I'm so happy to report that I got woke up this morning to 2 lil munchkin butts (Mags and Jazzie) running and jumping all over my bed playing their lil hearts out. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect morning. I just laid there in bed and smiled, thanking God for such miracles in my life, and again, for helping Jazzie along the way.... They sure do make my heart smile....

What a fantastic way to start your day!

I Love this story ! What a perfect story it is.

Yay, such a nice story, I am glad she has settled in well :)

Wow! Your story made my heart smile!

aww, that is so sweet...
i am happy for those little girls
and you too.....

What a way to start the morning:) Thank you for sharing that wonderful story and I am so thankful that Jazzie is in a home where she feels comfortable and knows she is loved. I think God has blessed you both.

My Lola was the exact same way after she left the puppy mill and came home to me. I promise, six months from now your Jazzie will be a totally different dog. Having a dog like Maggie in the house is the best thing in the world for her, as Maggie will teach her about the household rules and routine, having fun, and help her gain confidence exploring new situations. You'll see your sweet little Jazzie-flower bloom more with every passing day. It's so wonderful to stand back and watch her real personality emerge. Now, a year and a half later, Lola helps guide and teach all my new fosters when they come home. It's as if she knows and understands. I guess it's her doggie way of paying it forward. I'm so glad you've been blessed with such sweet little girls. Your hard work is paying off. You have an extra special little fur family, and are a extra special lady for taking on a puppy mill rescue. Love and blessings from our house to yours.

Aw what a great way to start your day!

Yes, thank God indeed! :) it's so sweet that Mags is there to help Jazzie along the way!

This story made my day, so glad that she is coming out in your home.

Your story made me smile :) What a perfect way to wake up!

beautiful story, thank you for sharing it with us.

Such a nice story with a happy ending! :)

This brought tears to my eyes, then a huge smile to my face! What a blessing that you and Jazzie found each other! :D

Made me cry here, I am going through the same thing with my Molly but the difference is she has spent her whole life in a cage. When she first came to me all she would do is hide. Now , three months later, she is one of the pack. She plays with them and does everything with them and I too am thanking God.

Wonderful story! Glad to see your baby is finally enjoying her life. You're a wonderful mommy for taking such good care of your babies.

Oh, I just love a good story with a happy ending!!! :-)

That was a great story. She will be a diva before you know it. My Brandi was the same way when I got her at 7 yrs old. Although she doesn't play hardly at all ( she's now 11) she has definitely is the diva of the house.

I agree, we all need to thank God for our pups. You especially were blessed with little Jazzie and she with you.

:D how wonderful !

wow what an awesome story. Thanks for sharing, and I hope jazzy has many more mornings and days playing and enjoying life.

That is wonderful. I hope it encourages others who have rescue dogs.

ahhhhhh that story made my heart smile. I can just imagaine how good that made you feel, thanks for sharing it with us.

What a wonderful story to read to start my day. I am so glad that Jazzie found her way to you and Mags. It shows how with love and patience theses poor babies can begin to heal from their emotional wounds.

Reading this brought me chills of happiness. I know it brought you much more than that. Bless you for giving that baby a forever home so she can live the life that she deserves. Big hugs to Mags for showing Jazzie how to be a normal pup.

What a great story.

Thanks for sharing this story. I can understand. My Gracie was a puppy mill pup with other owners before me. She was a mess. I am so blessed to have her in my life, she has taught me so much the soul of Yorkies. :)

Thank you to each and every one of you for your kind words in your replies. I'm so glad it made your hearts smile and touched the hearts of many of you :-) I remember crying as I'd watch Jazzie, it just broke my heart to know what she'd been through and I'd often wonder if she'd ever heal and be happy and know how much she was loved and wanted. God takes care of the sparrows, I should have never doubted that he'd heal our lil Jazzie as well. To all of you with furbabies like Jazzie, never give up. Time, love, patience, understanding, compassion and prayer go a long, long way and mean so much to these lil ones. And above all, ANYTHING is possible with God :-)
